THE COACHING STAFF PETER BERMEL Head Coach Memphis State soccer and Peter Bermel have become synonymous as they enter their sixth season together as a varsity sport and head coach. Bermel came to MSU in 1977 and started soccer as a club sport. After five years, soccer was promoted to an intercollegiate level in 1982. Since then, Bermel has had just one losing season and has compiled a 53-39-11 record during his tenure.

A native of Arnhem, Holland, Bermel came to the United States in 1964. He started playing soccer at the age of eight, and played international soccer against the likes of Germany and England. After initially living in Dallas upon his arrival in the U.S., he moved to Memphis in 1966. In 1970, he became involved in Memphis' youth soccer league, where he served as both a referee and coach until 1986. He is also a past president of the Adult Amatuer League in Memphis.

An active sportsman, Peter has also been active in Formula Ford auto racing, judo, cycling, and sailing. Bermel and his wife, Clare, have three children, Erich, 18, Jeffrey, 18, and Andrew, 7.

1987 TIGER SOCCER PREVIEW Coach Peter Bermel's fifth season at Memphis State was his best year, as he guided his Tigers to a 14-4-2 mark and also to the Metro Conference Invitational title. The 1986 season brought a lot of excitement to the soccer program, but this season could be a year that Coach Bermel and his players may never forget.

Bermel has been building his team with highly talented players since soccer became a varsity sport in 1982. The Tigers welcome back nine lettermen this year after losing five to graduation.

Players not returning include the team's second and third leading scorers, Ross Kuns and Tony Bridges, along with Ron Ferrara, Pat Fischer and Mike Kauker, who will join former Tiger Paulo Aur as an assistant to Bermel.

Of the returning players, last year's top scorer Donal McDonagh and forward John Cooke assume the leadership roles on the team. After an injury-filled 1986 season, E.J. Gilley returns as the top goalkeeper with junior Matt Price backing him up. Price did an excellent job of filling in at goal, when Gilley was lost for the season because of a leg injury.

Coach Bermel is excited about the newcomers this season. The defender positions are much improved with the additions of Karl Spilker, Jeff Konieczny, Johnny Norris and Scott Turner. They join returners Jimmy Holland, and George Musicante as contenders for the two starting spots.

Memphis State is expected to get more goal production from its group of talented attackers. McDonagh, a junior, seems to have the starting midfielder position nailed down, however, newcomers Greg Locks and Jon Goad will see some playing time as well. David Tappan, Troy Piel, Rob! Kauker and Tony Melkent will also see action at midfield this season.

Last year, Kuns and McDonagh combined for 48 points at the forward positions. This year, German import Morten Akerfors and newcomer Trevor Buckland head a list of seven players expected to see a lot of playing time.

Cooke, a senior and Memphis State's all-time leading scorer, will add depth and experience along with sophomore David Poczobut, freshman Rob Allen, senior Jeff Breslau and Sergio Musicante.

As Memphis State's talent gets richer, the schedule gets tougher. The Tigers are considered one of the more improved teams in the country, and they will get the chance to prove it as they play such soccer giants as Indiana, Evansville, Alabama A&M, North Texas State and Western Kentucky. Ten exciting home games will be featured beginning with the opener on September 4 against Southern Illinois-Edwardsville.

With the soccer program growing by leaps and bounds, who knows where the Tigers will end up this year?
